Google ROCKS!!!!

But I thought MS will go in near future up beacuse of Vista.
What if Vista became next big hit. PC vendors are starting to ship vista (even on assembled pcs.Pirated though.). So Vista will gain popularity in a year or so.

My only worry is that Google should not become the next Microsoft...the way they are proceeding, this is a very real possibility!
